Chili~Hogs
April is National Poetry Month! The rain soaked grass rests in spring
glory. The sun's hand on my head, a breeze wraps its arm around my
shoulder, reminds me why I live here—enough!
Sometimes you just can’t force
it. But it is beautiful today.
April 25th The Open Door Women’s Prison and Re-Entry Ministry is
having its 6th Annual motorcycle fundraiser ride, Chili~Hogs, sponsored by the Water’s
Edge Riders. Not a motorcyclist myself, I appreciate the WER’s commitment to
prison ministry.
At the end of the run (University UMC, 3501 Patrick St., Lake Charles) The Open Door will serve chili dogs from Noon until 2 PM. As a faith-based community organization over twenty churches are represented in the people participating to make this fundraiser a success. It’s always great fun and everyone (Including YOU!) are welcome to lunch, and listen to live gospel/bluegrass music with Charles Manuel and Friends.
I know it’s a commercial, but as president of The Open Door,
it’s what I do. Hope you’ll come pass a good time with us and hear some of the
fabulous testimonies from women who are turning their lives around. If you’d like to know more about our prison
ministry check out my column, Beyond the Wire in the Voice of
